SoundBytes 2012

The Sound of Lancashire: North West UK

Following a series of successful events and a showcase at Berlin Music Week, SoundBytes - the Creative Lancashire music initiative, have just released a promotional CD of original music by new and emerging artists and labels from the Lancashire region.

The CD will be distributed at international music trade symposiums such as MIDEM, SXSW, Liverpool Sound City and The Great Escape.

Over forty bands, labels and artists submitted one or more tracks for consideration and the standard was extremely high.

"The quality is fantastic. Every track is worthy of inclusion ...really impressed by Lancashire's creative output" Rebecca Boulton (Manager, New Order)

All the tracks plus other shortlisted entries can also be heard by clicking the link below:
